Our Story

In 2019, our founders stepped back to assess life science laboratories and the technologies used in and around lab automation. They saw two major problems with the industry.

Problem One

Outdated legacy technologies are not open, making it very difficult for software products of different kinds to work together.

Problem Two

Liquid handling technology has been stagnant for decades. Many conventional liquid handlers are difficult to use and lack the features needed for a truly streamlined automation workflow.

Because of this, our founders saw the opportunity to make lab automation easy and accessible for everyone. They founded Genie Life Sciences to provide labs with a user-friendly, reliable, and robust platform to automate a variety of scientific applications.

Digitalization with Genie

Provides a Unified Experience

Our cloud-connected automation solutions provide a single platform for uniform device control and management. This means you can control plate readers, thermocycler, centrifuges, and more from a single, easy-to-use interface. Other industries have evolved with technology to achieve standardization, repeatability, and scalability. We’re helping the biotech industry and life science labs catch up.

Eliminates Busy Work

As part of simulation, we identify the consumable tips and labware required, recommend the device setup/layout, and determine the cost and time required to complete the desired set of actions.

As part of protocol authoring, we’re eliminating the tedious calculations for liquid volumes and ratios. These are auto-generated for serial dilutions, normalizations, and negative and positive control thresholds.

Builds Confidence

We are moving away from the conventional trial and error approach and harnessing the potential of the digital world. Powerful simulation gives our users an end to end view of liquids in each well. Simulation shows how liquids are being moved & mixed, heated or cooled, and even manipulated with beads long before a sample is ever loaded into an instrument. We’re giving scientists the peace of mind by demonstrating virtually how the system functions so that there’s no surprises when it comes to run time.

"Think about the scientists that spend years studying their field—pipetting is a huge waste of their time and ability. How can we live in an industry where we take highly skilled people and give them such mundane jobs? The mundane jobs should be pushed to machinery and software, and we should free up their minds to focus on truly transformative work."
Denis Knjazihhin, Co-Founder and CTO
